nomatch is on a distinguished road

I'm not sure that this is a great way of dealing with the spam. Surely now, spammers will just wait for four days, not even have to bother posting anything and then start spamming.

I don't think someone becomes a spammer, JUST to be able to post in the marketplace - although that may be a factor in a small minority. The annoying people who spam (the iphones, computers, their sites) - come here to do that anyway.

Anyway, obviously I don't have figures to back that up - but what the staff could do, is actually look at the data in the admin panel - and try to understand the spammers. You must understand them to defeat them!

This seems logically, very clever - however it won't solve anything!
